Pains in the Head

A LOT OF ARRANT NONSENSE.

II didn't sleep at all that night. When !
looked over my famous introduction found
it to be arrant nonsense. Each sentence was
complete and coherent in itself but none
had any relation to the others, although all
were in the general line of the subject l was
treating III the book. The stuff read as a
whole very much like a dream. 1t was q
mess of ragged, disconnected ideas and
notions, set down in adisOrderly fashion and
containing matter that did not belong to an
Introduction. But in spite of the rampant
disorder of ideas had no Authorizations such
as are produced by hasheesh no grotesque
decisions or insane imaginings. The mental
machinery was running with the governor
belt thrown off, and the brain raced, SO to
speak Eight grains three nights later pro-
duced similar effects, but did not write and
the sensation became rather painful than
agreeable.
1.-The next night l determined to make a
more severe test, and so injected eighteen
grains within twenty minutes. The results
were stunning. i became intensely exhila-
rated and finally Oblivious. What did or
thought felt | don't know, except from
circumstantial evidence | got to bed in
some way. In the morning i found the
library in disorder. All the volumes of two
large cyclop;edias were opened and scattered
about the floor though had been search
ing for something and could not find it.

Any brilliant idea | might have had under

vivid remembrance of a most preposterous
headache that lasted two days and refused
to succumb to cold baths. | cured it with
strong coffee. Then | stopped the expert
ments. | acquired no habit and had no
difficulty in quitting the use of cocaine.
Experiments upon others and observation OF
the results of administering cocaine in
cumulative doses for three months in cases
requiring such treatment have satisfied me
that there is no cocaine habit When used
to cure the opium habit by persons ignorant
of the proper way of using it cocaine has
produced bad effects; but an opium eater
has habit of having habit, and no will
power, and If he We're to take sawdust as a
substitute for opium he would acquire a saw
dust habit. Take the opium or morphine
habit away from the patient and administer
cocaine properly and you will cure tho
opium habit without introducing cocaine
habit.
lone singular effect of cocaine is that it
will induce people to speak who are afflicted
with silent melanchOlia. A woman who had
not spoken for nine months began to talk
within four minutes after l had injected four
grains, and in ten minutes she talked at a
rate that made up for lost time. Nothing
could stop her. Whether this property of
cocaine is beneficial and desirable depends,
perhaps, upon circumstances. New York

Modesty ON Sleeping Cars.

IL have just come from that painful lux
ury the sleeping car, said belle. How
homogeneous and improper it was, for in
stance to discover that the grumbler In an
upper berth, whose mildest remark in the
course of the long night was, 1T cursed hot
up here was none other than a full fiedged
major general By day he was a gorgeous
vision of spectacular gallantry, by night a
bowling demon of profanity. Bat enough
of men, the commonplace creatures; their
ways plain as an opened book, and
their characters easily read. Let us re-
turn to the ineyhaustible field for psyche
meteorological resource. The first night in
a sleeper is nothing to the first morning.
''Well do 1 remember my first experience.
The toilet is accomplished under such har
rowing circumstances. Said a stout young
woman from an adjoining section: Il have
travelled all the way from San Francisco in
a sleeper, and I've lost the last shred of
modesty.' l believed her when l saw her
sitting on the end of her berth in her corset,
with loosened lacings, drawing on her
boots, with a lavish display of plumply
filled hosiery, the curtains pushed back, and
men and women passing to and from the
toilet room. 1t was a needless exposure The
girl across the aisle, No. 3, emerged from
her closet curtains with not a crinkle in
drapery, boots buttoned, and hair smooth
as satin TO the line where it broke into bill
lows of crimpness over her forehead. How
did she do it, She was in the toilet room
with the first streak of dawn, for / peeped
through my curtains as she passed by i'll dress
ing sack and skirts, the voluminous drapery
on her arms, and the crimping pins held
by a lovely turban. There was a difference,

The lee supply.

Ice weighs, as ordinarily packed, about
fifty pounds To the cubic foot. Estimating
at the rate of 100 pounds per day for the
ordinary consumption of Il farm dairy, one
ton would be used up i'll twenty days. A
ton and a half per month is IA moderate
supply for dairy farm. There ought
always to be full calculation made for

drew near would rebuild his house 50 that
the front door should not face the north, but
when February and the early spring of the
table land approached he would rebuild
again 50 that his door, the only aperture in
the hut, should face the north once more.
Poor old man. His corpse will soon be dis
turbed to make room for some other pauper,
for even after death does poverty pursue the
poor.
Sad is the death of the little children of
the city poor. A tiny coffin is hired, a few
flowers brought, and the little funeral pro-
cession may consist only of the father carry
ing his dead baby on his head, the mother
coming behind, and perhaps brother of the
dead baby. Often the women do not go out
to the burying place, but only the men OF
the family. One day in the great plaza amid
the din Of holiday music and the life and
animation of crowded public place saw
q poor woman, a widow, buying flowers to
put on her dead child's coffin, which she
alone WAS to take on her head to the grave

The District court adjourned Mon.
day afternoon, having occupied
nearly the entire term Of the court in
criminal cases, resulting in but one
conviction; that OF the State vs.
Ring for assault.
The State against W. E. Meyers
| for violating the pharmacy law
! brought verdict from the Jury by
direction from the court OF mot
guilty"
In the State vs.. OReiley for re-
sisting an officer was dismissed for
failure to prosecute.
In the case of the State vs. Geo
D. Chryst indicted for burglary,
the jury after an absence OF about
five minutes returned a verdict OF
mot guilty.. In this case desper-
ate effort was made to convict, I'M
porting dead beat from Minneapo-
lis at the expense Of the county who
like the other witnesses for the State
were without q single circumstance
that would cast a shadow Of SUSPECT
on upon the accused.
In the case Of the State VS.. Beaman
indicted for the murder OF Jon Hab-
erly, the jury stood eleven for con-
viction, one for acquittal, and was
discharged by the court. The only
question in the case was as to the
admisibility Of his confession as evil
dence of his guilt; the defence main
tanned that the evidence was extOrt-
ed under threats and promises, and
hence was not voluntary. On Mon
day morning the prisoner offered to
confess to the crime OF maDslaugh-
ter which was accepted by the coun-
ty attorney and on Monday after
noon the Court sentenced Clifford
Beaman to six years in the peniten-
tiary at Anamosa and to pay Il fine
OF two hundred dollars.
On Tuesday the Sheriff left with
him for States prison, the prisoner
leaving with about the ordinary ap-
parent pleasure Of one starting on
O picnic excursion. And, indeed, 1t
may well be considered such by him,
because taking the circumstances
altogether, it seems to have delib-
erately planned and brutaily ex
ecuted murder, in which we believe
Clifford Beaman to have been the
principal actor.
In the after noon just before his
departure the writer. with w. A. Diss-
more, Harry Baldwin and George D.
Chryst went to the Jail to hear what
he had to say for himself. Until then
we had never seen his face that we
Anore bitter, vindictive,
cruel, depraved face we never beheld
on mortal mah-exactly the mould
that great criminals are cast in, the
world over. After our departure he
unbosomed himself to those WHO
went there with us, deliberately ex-
himself as Il depraved wretch
whose life would have been no CON-
pensation for the crime Ut which he
is guilty. The only evidence OF hon
or that these persons report that he
exhibited was in declaring that he
would not sqneal on party in Cres-
co whom he named.
